Because many Minnesota-05 residents want someone else. The "DNC" isn't primarying Omar. Samuels is. He doesn't need the approval of the DNC to run for office. Many people are lined up to volunteer for and vote for Samuels.

And this is Minnesota. Our party and state organization is the DFL, Democratic Farmer Labor.
